This is the adorable moment a toddler plays a hilarious game of peekaboo with a penguin.

Little Jersey, aged three, was at Calgary Zoo in Alberta, Canada, when the penguin took a shine to her.

Stopping in its tracks as it swam by, it turned to look at toddler, before beginning to bob its head above and below the waterline – sending here into fits of laughter.

Jersey’s aunt Sara Addison, who had accompanied Jersey to the zoo along with her grandmother, said: “I had her stand on the stroller so she could get a good view above and below the water line.

After three minutes peekaboo, a large crowd began to form as others watched on drop-jawed.

Sara added: “Other people standing close by noticed and started to try and get the penguins attention in hopes he would play with their children but he seemed to have a shining for Jersey.

“She giggle and giggled and did not want to leave.

“Such a crowd had formed we thought we should give others the chance to have a better look.

“She loves to watch the video back and always gets a big smirk on her face when we talk about how much the penguin liked her.”
